Todays NAP of the Day

CopyBet Handicap Hurdle - Market Rasen

Lord Chamberlain

J: Toby McCain-Mitchell T: Dominic Elsworth
Race Winner
7/4

Reason for Tip

Five year old Lord Chamberlain switched to obstacles from the flat and has been progressive since doing so. Culminated in a dominant win lto on handicap debut at Hereford and whilst the handicapper has put 7lb on for that win, still looks well treated on that handicap debut performance. Goes 2f further here which should be more of a positive than negative and the forecasted good ground is ideal. This isnt a tough race and talented apprentice Toby aboard for the run is a positive. Very likely winner and looks the one to beat.

⭐ NAP of the Day

Next Twist (3.30 Ayr)

Selection: Next Twist
Time: 3.30
Course: Ayr
Odds: 1/1
Trainer: Olly Murphy
Jockey: Sean Bowen

Next Twist looks a winner in waiting and is taken as today’s NAP of the Day. The six-year-old has form figures of 43612 and has improved with every hurdle run so far this season.

A close second at this course last time out reads very well, and returning to the same 2-mile trip at Ayr should suit perfectly given the experience already gained around the track. Of the main dangers, there are consistency concerns elsewhere, making Next Twist the more reliable option.

The Murphy–Bowen combination is a big positive, with both trainer and jockey boasting excellent strike-rates at Ayr. When teaming up here, they have won over one-third of their runners, which adds further confidence.

Everything points towards a big run — and potentially a deserved victory.

Lightning Hooves

J: Alec Voikhansky T: T Ward
Race Winner
10/1

Reason for Tip

Three poor efforts in first three starts. Was gelded prior to lto and whilst it helped a little, still below par but now goes handicapping off a basement initial mark and should be capable of being much more involved today. Steps up in trip to a mile today which on pedigree is a positive change. Well drawn today and this really isnt a warm race. Decent booking in Voikhansky and Lightening Hooves looks capable of being a big improver now handicapping. Decent chance.

🎯 Dark Horse

My Mate Beattie (6.30 Wolverhampton)

Selection: My Mate Beattie
Time: 6.30
Course: Wolverhampton
Odds: 16/1
Trainer: S Dixon
Jockey: Kieran O’Neill

At a big price, My Mate Beattie is today’s Dark Horse and makes plenty of appeal at 16/1.

While the four-year-old is still searching for her first career win, she has gone close on several occasions in the past and is now running off a career-low mark of 48, which puts her firmly into the nicely-handicapped bracket.

A plum draw in stall 2 gives her every chance to be prominent, and if allowed an uncontested lead in what looks a weak race, she could prove difficult to peg back. The yard is in excellent form and Kieran O’Neill has been riding with confidence, operating at a 31% strike-rate over the past fortnight.

She needs things to fall right — but at the odds, she’s more than capable of outrunning her price.

Stellar Vision

J: Marco Ghiani T: S C Williams
Race Winner
7/1

Reason for Tip

Most unexposed horse in this lineup and after a very credible third on debut in a warm maiden here at Newmarket went on to win in fine style lto at Wolverhampton. Makes handicap debut today and is open to plenty of further improvement and progression. This is a warmer task and theres a couple of nice youngster in the lineup but this three year is still capable of much more and already has course experience on side. Marco Ghiani is a good booking here and theres lots to like for Stellar Visions chances today.

Catchim

J: James Bowen T: C & A Pogson
Race Winner
11/4

Reason for Tip

Weak looking race here in the 3.55 and one who looks set to take advantage of that is Catchim from the Pogson yard. Largely consistent type and returned to action after 3 months off with a decent third placed finish at Southwell last month. Should strip fitter for that and looks to be on a workable mark. Should appreciate both trip and ground today and has a top class jockey aboard in James Bowen and hes not a stranger to course success. Won’t take a great deal to win this and Catchim has a real chance of doing so.

No Panic

J: Lorcan Williams T: J Scott
Race Winner
5/2

Reason for Tip

No Panic had struggled to string together performances and was evidently not breathing as easily at Taunton two starts ago. Undergone a wind operation which has helped, evident in the returning run lto at Wincanton when fourth. Likely to come on for that run and after mark has dropped again following that is looking pretty well handicapped. From a yard with a good record here and stable jockey Lorcan Williams aboard is no negative. Steps up slightly in trip which is fine and looks set for a big run today.

Okiru

J: L Morris T: A Watson
Race Winner
9/2

Reason for Tip

Fair form in first three starts and nearly made a perfect handicap debut when second behind a big improver at Newcastle. Wasn’t disgraced lto when fifth, was from a terrible draw and never got the running of the race but remains very capable and another chance is given today from the plum draw in stall 1. Remains unexposed and open to further progress and this youngsters form is better than it reads on result. Good jockey aboard in Luke Morris who knows how to get the job done here at this track and Okiru looks likely to be heavily involved today.

🍀 Lucky 15 Tips Today

Today’s Lucky 15 combines strong form, value angles and positive jockey bookings:

1️⃣ Visual Impact – 1.50 Ayr (7/2)

A reasonable hurdler who showed promise on chase debut earlier in the season. Her mark has dropped 5lb in recent runs and she looks well treated in a weak race. The return of Derek Fox, who does well at Ayr, is a big plus and she should appreciate the 3-mile trip once again.


2️⃣ Sanitiser – 3.15 Plumpton (9/2)

Progressive since switching to fences, with chase form figures of 443. Looks entitled to improve again and won’t mind the soft ground. The 3lb claim from Freddie Mitchell is valuable and the Moore yard continue to enjoy a strong season. Nicely priced with plenty going for him.


3️⃣ The Jeweller’s Pet – 4.00 Ayr (7/1)

A course-and-distance winner who landed this very race last year on heavy ground. Conditions look ideal once more, and he remains on a workable mark. Back over hurdles after a promising return last time, with Callum Bewley an upgrade in the saddle. Big chance of going very close.


4️⃣ Summer Heat – 5.30 Wolverhampton (9/2)

Has settled well into her new yard and has finished second on both starts this year. Drawn perfectly in stall 1, and the 5lb apprentice allowance from Ashley Lewis makes her look extremely well treated. Yard is flying at Wolverhampton and a big run looks on the cards.
